Can you be more specific regarding which documentation you are referring
to?  http://docs.openafs.org/ provides:

 * Reference Manual
   http://docs.openafs.org/Reference/index

 * UNIX Quick Start Guide
   http://docs.openafs.org/QuickStartUnix/index.html

 * Administration Guide
   http://docs.openafs.org/AdminGuide/index.html

 * User Guide
   http://docs.openafs.org/UserGuide/index.html

Can you point out which of the above guides is out of date?  Or are you
referring to something else?

It used to be that AFS servers were configured to automatically restart
each Sunday.  This is no longer required.   The uptime of many publicly
available servers is more than a year.   Memory leaks should be a thing
of the past.  Where is this reference?

Volume names are still short.

Where did you find a reference to user names being 8 octets?

UNICODE when stored in a filesystem is encoded using UTF-8.  The number
of octets required to store a UNICODE character as UTF-8 varies from one
to four depending on the numeric value associated with the character.
